Day 141

Work pleasures

Sometimes there are great things about my job – like getting to cuddle this little baby.

Day 140

Good timesHad a lovely barbecue with friends today. The weather was glorious and we sat on the patio drinking wine watching the children playing happily together. It was bliss.

Day 139

Strawberry patch

I reckon our strawberry patch is going to be extremely productive this year. Heaps of flowers and the fruits are already growing.

Day 138

Guernsey tours

I saw this magnificent vehicle in the car park at Waitrose.

I thought it might be useful for the school run.

Day 137

Haircut fairyI took the kids for haircuts today and thought The Little Miss was going to be really awkward. However she was more than happy to put on a pink gown and have a trim.

Day 136

Bionic BettySo here is the handy work of the lovely vet who has screwed Betty back together. Both sides of the pelvis were damaged but only the left hand side was surgically repaired – this is the side she is weight-bearing on and managing really well. The other side is just going to take time and rest.

Recovery is going well and she is still fairly content being crated most of the time.

Day 135

Mum's birthday

Today would have been my Mum’s 68th birthday. Whilst we have both had really busy days and an awful lot going on my sister and I took time for a short walk together.

I miss Mum so much on days like this – the particular days when we remember her and mourn her loss, but the days I find hardest are those when someone innocent catches me unawares. When a particular song or smell, or a memory captures me unexpectedly. Those are the times when I feel her absence the most as I have not prepared for them.

I am grateful that we get to remember her with such happy thoughts, that Louise and I get to spend time together. Our lives are so blessed by all we have.

Morning skyA beautiful start to the day, even when I am hanging out mountains of washing. A beautiful sky never fails to make me smile.

Day 133

Juliana BuhringThis afternoon I went to see a Guernsey Literary Festival talk with Juliana Buhring. This amazing woman was the first woman to cycle around the globe on a bike, but she also has a fascinating childhood story as she grew up in the Children of God.

She was so interesting to listen to. She was open and honest and generous with her time and answered loads of questions.

Day 132

Tiger in the Tree

It would seem that the Tiger in the Tree position that we used to settle The Little Mister when he was a baby is a little less comfortable these days!
